Changed this:

• Tron has to set a minor record, despite being a Disney flick. First, Alan and Lora show up at Flynn's arcade. Flynn acts a little overly familiar to them both (even if Lora's his ex), snarking that "nothing classes up the joint like a clean-cut young couple." Once they're upstairs, he casually changes his shirt in front of them, remarks Lora isn't one for small talk, and asks Alan if she still leaves clothing on the floor. The end of the scene is Lora brandishing a set of car keys and asking "Shall we dance?".
  • Once Flynn's in cyberspace, there's buckets of Ho Yay when he allies himself with Ram and Tron. The scene at the Power Pool? Three pretty men in skintight, neon-lit spandex gasping and giggling over how good power from a "pure source" is.
  • And after Ram dies and Flynn's found Tron and Yori? Well, see the arcade scene above. Tron and Yori are doppelgangers of Alan and Lora and in an established relationship already. Doesn't slow down any of the Ho Yay from earlier, nor does it stop Flynn from giving Yori a very passionate Last Kiss before making what he believes to be a Heroic Sacrifice to save them all.

to this:

• Some people see a lot of this in TRON, despite being a Disney flick. Specifically, in the principle Love Triangle between the three main human characters (and their program counterparts, by proxy) and even homoerotic overtones between Flynn, Tron and Ram.

Mostly for reasons of subjectivity (and a little Too Much Information, literally), as to be honest I can't see much of it. (Despite re-watching the film to test it out.)

Accidentally launched this from the YKTTW page. Sorry. I was trying to add a thumbs up.

Anyways, it's a page now, so let the Wiki Magic begin.
